LOST HIS INTEREST.

1t is reported of Governor West that
that he is indifferent in the matter OF
the passage of the Edmunds-Tucker
bill. We can readily understand how
he would necessarily be Indifferent, but
one cannot help the thought that His
Excellency exposes the spot wherein he
was hurt when he ceases to manifest
interest in the bill. West went all the
way to Washington to lobby for the
measure, and it Is admitted by all that
if it had not been for his exertions and
cunning the bill would never have Sc
cured a standing in the House. All
the Baskins and BENEFITS imaginable,
and ten times the gross sum of the
Loyal League corruption fund could
not have brought the bill up and passed
it. The Governors interestin the matter
was plainly visible. He was to have
the power of appointing 2,400 officers,
and naming all other officials for the
Territory, as the President would natu-
rally if not necessarily apply to him
for recommendations. The Governor
expected to be a good deal of an auto
crat, and was keen to have the Terri
tory turned over to him. When the
appointing power for which he had sac
rifced his pretended fairness, and ex-
posed his true character as a man and
an official, was taken from him, and
Congressman, by striking out the GOV
eted clause, declared they had no con-
fidence in an executive who would leg
for such unrighteous power, Governor
West very naturally lost interest in the
bill But by sulking in his tent now
His Excellency is simply disgusting
those who were so vociferous in shout
ing his praises few days ago. He is
proving the mercenary character of his
previous interest in the bill, and adver-
Using to all that his selfShuess and per-
sonal greed induced him to degrade
himself and his high Office when he be-
came lobbyist for the Loyal League.
a PRESIDENT who dares, when he be-
1ieves he is right, veto a pension bill,
and shame the demagogues who feared
t. vote against a measure they knew
was wrong in principle, commands
respect for his independence, whatever
may be said of his judgment. ouch a
President ought to have the courage to
veto cruel and unconstitutional law
enacted against so unpopular people
as the Mormons. 1t may not be neces-
sary for President Cleveland to pass
upon the Tucker-Edmunds bill, and it
is sincerely to be hoped that the
measure will not be presented to him
for his action thereon; but if the bill
shall ever get to him, we believe he is
brave enough to kill it.

Farming That Pays.

Every farmer should aim to raise
all the farm products needed for do
nestle use first. The independence
of farm life lies right here. He grows
every supply for his table, SO far as
his sun and climate permits, under his
own eye. He is dependent on no one
for the necessities of life, or even for
the luxuries of his table. Every va
riety of fruit suited to his locality
should be produced for his own use,
let him live near or remote from the
city. Then, let him increase the acre
age of every variety that pays in the
market to his ability to handle it
without loss-his losses will often over
balance his profits. 1t is not wise for
the grower to put himself at the mercy
of others. If he does, he will often
fAd their tender mercy cruel. They
will let his perishable property go TO
waste, unless they can secure the lions
share of the profits.
Besides grain crops and stock grow
ing as branch of farming, every farm
adapted to it should have growing on
it an orchard of every variety of fruit
demanded by the market at paying
prices. Do not run so much to one
kind Of fruit that you would suffer
heavy embarrassment if it fails. AL
kinds of fruit seldom fail in one year

EARNING NOTES.

The great secret in sowing wheat is
in getting ready to SOW. Heavy seed
ing on thoroughly prepared seed
bed is waste and folly.
Reduction in the cost of production
is better than advance in selling pri-
ces. The benefits of the latter accrue
only to the producer. By the former
he receives equal benefit and all the
world shares it.
Year in and year out, wet season or
dry, a sod on heavy land, plowed in
the fall that it may rot and settle be-
fore planting, gives more and better
chanees for a good crop of corn than
the same sod plowed in the spring.
A leading Scottish agriculturist as
serts chat the growing of good grass
is the whole secret of farming get
good grass to grow and the after-crops
are easily got. The more blades the
more roots F.; the more roots the richer
the land and, in all probability the
man who farms it.
1t is stated that ga party of japanese
have bought four hundred acres Of
land in the foothills near Campo Seco,
Calaveras county, Cal, and they pro-
pose to irrigate through mining
ditch from the Mokelumme river and
convert it into tea farm. 1t is said
that japanese have experimental
with tea in the vicinity and proved it
success"
In arranging for settling milk, the
following points should be kept in
view /. Cream rises fastest when the
temperature of the milk is falling. 2.
The faster the temperature falls the
more rapidly the cream rises. 3. The
more rapidly the cream rises the more
complete will be the exhaustion of
cream from the milk.-[L. B. Arnold.
No garden vegetable has been more
improved than the common tomato.
Forty or more years ago they were
seedy, watery and of little value. For
time the chief attempt to improve
them was in securing extra early va
rieties. Now frmness of flesh and
comparative freedom from seeds are
bred for. oome of the best varieties
have so much substance in their flesh
that they make excellent preserves
For canning they are also much better
than the thin, watery sorts.
1t is not good practice to sow win
ter wheat very early. Old farmers
have rule to wait for frost before
sowing, so as to head off the Hessian
fly, which will not deposit its eggs
after the frost touches the wheat
leaves. But the rule is a good .one
aside from danger from the fly. The
wheat plant likes cool climate for it,
| best development, and succeeds best
generally near the northern limit fol
its growth. After one or two frost:
there is time for wheat to make all the
top necessary before it goes into win
ter quarters.
Formerly" says a Maryland grow
er Of watermelons, "there were only 6
few varieties, such as fhe cream, the
Cuban Queen and the Rattlesnake
but now there are hundred of then
and all possess some special qualities
The best sll-round melon, however, il
the Kolb Gem. 1t has fine meat, i
grows as large as sixty pounds, and il
has good tough rind that makes i
unequal for shipping purposes. Their
there is the Pride of Georgia, a superb
melon, and there are dozens of other
ofless renown."

Baessern Ohio will rot raise over a
qnarter crop and that will be princi-
pally air dried Burley. The crop is
all cut.
Durham is to have new prize
house, its thirty It is to be five
stories high, 100 by 140 feet. Messrs.
j. L. Pink & Co. are the proprie-
tors,
Prices are advancing in Kentucky.
The frost on Sept. Oath found about
half crop in the field and did much
damage. The crop will be very short
and p1ices will go up.
The last issue of the Western Iobac-
co Journal has very complimentary
article ON Messrs. w. T. Gray & Co.,
the enterprising smoking tobacco man
ufacturers of Winston. "Off Duty"
Is making itself reputation.
New tobacco is being marketed in
many Virginia and North Carolina
markets in unusual quantities for so
carly in the season. This is due to the
good cures obtained and the high pri-
ces paid. Fancy prices are being paid
fer fancy tobacco. The tobacco offer
ed is in some instances disappointing
and in others up to expectations
Western Tobacco Journal.
T. J. Womack, ESQ.,, of Caswell
county. who was in the city yesterday,
reports the tobacco crop in that coun-
ty as the best that has been made in
twenty five years, and that fine cures
were being made generally. Mr..
Womack is an extensive grower and
was in the city taking observations of
the tobacco market with a view to
patronizing it.-Neaos and Observer.
In Durham last year-that is the
year ending September 30th-there
was manufactured 3,915,344 pounds
of smoking tobacco, 100, 900 pounds of
plug, $4,000 pounds of snuff, and 359-
134, 250 cigarettes. It required about
100000 pounds of leaf to manufac-
ture this tobacco, snuff and cigarettes.
Over 1000 hands have been employed
| in the manufacture of the above
amounts, requiring an outlay of near
ly three quarters of a million dollars
for wages alone.
The Asheville Citizen of the 9th
says: "We saw yesterday some of
the new crop on the floor of the Far
mers Warehouse. 1t was good color
and body. 1t was not sold, the guam
tity being too small for an offering.
Diligent inquiry from the planters in
| regard to the damage by the recent
frost lead to the conclusion that about
Is per cent of the standing crop was
injured. About halt, possibly not so
much, had been cut before the frost.
The action of the frost was capricious.
In some neighborhoods no harm was
done, in others, not far remote, whole
fields were killed. Major Rollins, one
eof the largest planters, says along the
French Broad the frost was not ap-
parent"

THE TERRIBLE REVENGE OF DETECTED CRIMINALS

dispatch to the New York Times from Atlanta
November 2, says: Information reached the reve-
nue. agents ONCE this morning that William A..
Morgan, OF HARRISON County. was beaten to death
with sticks by party OF moonshiners on the night
OF october 80 This Is the terrible sequel OF long
story OF crime in HARRISON. which began last Jan.
uary. On the 18th of January Revenue Agent w.
large Illicit distillery in the northwestern part Of
HARRISON County There they captured seven
men, two OF whom wer' turned loose and
also a mule. The mule was carried to
Waco, 10 miles away, aud that night 1t was stolen
back by the moonshiners who also burned the
dwelling OF Mr.. Rowe, who was thought TO be a
guide to the revenue officers About a month
afterward, when Rowe was spending the night
with man named Cornell, the muonshinerS fired
Into the house through The door, and several shots
child was lying. On the 14th Of last month, near
TallapOosa, Revenue Agent ColQuitt and Deputy
Marshals johnson and Rowe attempted to stop q
buggy loaded with whisky. As they walked
ten shots at them, aid finally got away.

tillery was found, and beat him TO death in the
presence OF his wife with heavy sticks, and when
she begged ptteOusy for his life they knocked her

Is from her that the details OF the crime went out.
